I read about Nintendo’s ability effectively brick them remotely yesterday and decided to cancel my order. I have had every Nintendo console since the NES, for better or worse, but I am definitely skipping this one.
I have the mindset that I buy one for the lowest firmware, because nintendo always has people trying to hack it (successfully). Nintendo has very low investment in actually trying to get a proper OS engineer design their OS security. Youd basically have to go as far back as the fucking virtual boy to look for something non exploitable, and thats just because no one bothered with it.
I’ve considered buying one to hack later, the only issue is generally being locked in to low firmwares and thus only the games on those firmwares, unless they figure out some sort of hack later on.
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if the switch 2 ends up requiring a hard mod down the road but I’ve decided I’m not going to worry about any of it until it materializes.
Both “canceled” and “cancelled” are correct spellings, but they are used in different regions. “Canceled” is the preferred spelling in American English, while “cancelled” is preferred in British English.
For whatever reason, even though I’m American, canceled just looks wrong to me.

I won’t even consider buying one until they’re fully hackable. Until then I’d rather invest in my steamdeck and PC.

Get a steam deck and pirate any of the games you want
What sites can you pirate switch games from? So I know to stay away from them
Idk, Nintendo games have zero appeal to me. Not sure what the best source is.
The steam deck has been the direct replacement for the Nintendo switch for me.
I swear man there needs to be a big fan push nintendo to have some form of official pc ports
I know ‘canceled’ is the American spelling but it looks weird to me without the second L.
Oh my god, it does have two L’s. I’ve been losing my mind this entire time for like the past… Well since getting auto correct.
I thought I was just bad at spelling.

Just wait til it’s hacked bro. No way they are keeping this thing secure.
